the pancake house we ate 25 pancakes at and i promptly had serious runs for the rest of the date.
awesome.


the guesthouse inn where i left lots of our first date in the bathroom.



the millions of abandoned farm houses we explored
the bus we jumped all over.

flying kites out of the car window,
considering making the car into a giant kite propelled hybrid

cowboy poetry
all the vets who made me cry
and that old old man who could whistle more beautiful than anything i have ever heard on this earth.

the awful and awesome restaurants

and my
new chapter
of life

which i am anxious and willing to begin/ open

crossing our fingers that we find housing

crossing his in his sleep)

the world is so so so so good.
